A must read.

I read this book quickly and I really appreciated the feelings and perspectives that the author share about her life and her grieving process. It was well written and well expressed—and grabs the reader’s interest right away. If you know anyone that has experienced loss, I encourage you to share this book with them. And I think it shows great examples of all the ways you can extend help to people who are grieving or experiencing other loss.

A Beautiful Story on All Levels

Lisa's story is so touching - goes to the heart of anyone grieving. Reading her story touched my heart - part of me cried; then I would smile. There were no slow parts to her story, and although it was not an extremely difficult read, it was very thought provoking and very engrossing. I highly recommend this book! For me, the message of this book was clear. With hope and courage, we can overcome everything - especially grief. Grieving is not easy, and Lisa's journey since being a young widow shows her true strength and spirit.”

Lisa's writing took me from ugly girl crying to full~on belly laughs
January 24, 2022

The thread that runs through Lisa's entire book is her sense of humor that took me from sobbing to absolutely belly laughing.

Her stubborn determination, compassion for others and joy of living life to the fullest has been an inspiration to me for years.

A Kindness I Will Never Forget is a diary of her life but also a constant reminder to the reader to keep going, keep laughing and to make your life and others a blessing everyday.

This book is a gift to all her readers.

A heartwarming read.

While I am neither young or a widow, I really enjoyed this book. It is true story and follows the author through a very tough time in her life. While parts of it were sad, the overwhelming feeling is one of joy and perseverance. The message to me was people are basically good, they want to help and we can and will get through the tough times and there will be better times ahead.
